For me it has been positive.Many immigrants are fixing to leave and are selling of businesses.They built a model on paying under the table etc. so there workers 100 would be 100 versus our 100 after everything is taken out 65 to 70 bucks.Many restaurants with the new reform will not be able to maintain profit margins with the new costs and will simply sell off or shut down.I am getting commercial short sale listings with immigrants leaving the country.On the flip side I hear landlords worry when a majority of tenants are immigrants.They feels they might go to being full to a huge vacancy and cash flow problem.Labor costs might rise for contractor rates.It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

If you purchase and did your modeling correctly you factor in the higher potential assessment and then cash flows will not be affected.

It's better if the business model matches the traffic flow for the time of the day.Are these business that need a bunch of foot traffic to be healthy OR is most of their business conducted through shipping??

That's at cherry-picking time.David, everybody has their own business model, but to say that such a model has "way too much risk & potential trouble" is not a fair statement or a complete one.

The banks are supposed to be the most responsible party to the transaction and their WHOLE BUSINESS MODEL is evaluating risk and loaning money2.

I also wanted to put in a plug for Phil's newly-revised model you can find on the following thread:Apartment Complex ModelI would love to get your feedback on the latest model incarnation after you study some Robert.
